Column 9
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
Far be it from me to steer anyone away from a couple weeks of sun and fun in Puerto Vallarta .. the place is amazing.
Pristine beaches etch endlessly into the sunset. Bikinis are everywhere. The nightlife runs into morning — the Dos Equi’s flow. And the …

Column 8
New York City, New York
Facing a few days of business in Manhattan it seemed there were only two logical ways to proceed. I tried both.
I checked the CYBERDARTS listing of steel tip pubs in New York. And I posted a message to the “alt.sport.darts” newsgroup asking where the …

Column 7
Cape Cod, Massachusetts
If the truth be known, I can’t remember how I got myself into writing these little reports. I recall some months ago contacting Rick Osgood to see if he knew of a place to throw darts in Beijing. His hesitant response was something like: “Well… no, but …

Column 6
Prince Edward Island, Canada
For the past week I’ve been hunkered down in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada. This is snowmobiling country, hockey country, sealing country — blizzard country! Tonight the snow was coming down in flakes so fat that you could actually feel them when they hit your jacket. …

Column 5
Crowborough, East Sussex, England
I’ve just arrived in London after spending the past week in the Wealden District — East Sussex, home of Winnie the Pooh. I’ve been conducting some business and, as usual, throwing darts in the evening. The past few days I’ve tried out a members-only establishment called …

Column 4
Seoul, Korea
Have you ever tried to explain the rules of 301 or cricket to someone who doesn’t speak a word of english? I’ve just attempted this in a bar called “O’Kim’s” at the Westin Chosun Hotel (87 Sokong-dong, Chung-ku) in Seoul, Korea. I was not successful!
O’Kim’s is an Irish …

Column 3
Moscow, Russia
The past thirty-two days have been a pain in the butt. Literally. What was originally to be a week-long Guinness tasting holiday in Dublin with three buddies somehow turned into a month-long, 2,000 mile, bike ride from Dublin to Moscow. Don’t ask me how this happened. I no longer …

Column 2
England
Just got back from throwing darts here in the UK. The place doesn’t have a street address, which is common, but it’s great. So here’s something for your listing …
It’s called The Foresters Arms. It’s located in a small village (of about 200 people) called Fairwarp, near Uckfield. Which …

Column 1
Beijing, China
Thanks to Rick Osgood and the mysteries of cyberspace this report (the first of a series to follow from time to time) is coming to you from Beijing, China where, believe it or not, darts actually exists. I’m here for a meeting with the Ministry of Forestry regarding …
